Dead Ball - Player entitled to advance is injured

Question

My understanding is OBR allows a substitution, in a dead ball situation, of an injured player who was otherwise entitled to advanced a base (or more).
To my knowledge this has happened only twice in the past 40 years in MLB. (Bobby Bonds, Gabe Kapler)
I assume the substitution is made with the new player continuing from exactly where the first player was hurt. And it's a full substitution - the new guy's in the game (even gets credited with the run if he is completing a home run trot).
Is this handled any differently in HS or LL? Are temporary/courtesy runners allowed for these types of scenarios?
